Yes, inspiration is considered the active phase of breathing.
The three phases of breathing are:The Active phase which is known as (inhalation/ inspiration).Phase 2. gas exchange in the lungs also known as (Internal exchange).The Passive phase which is known as (exhalation /expiration).
The medical term you are looking for is "respiration," which refers to the process of breathing involving both inhalation and exhalation movements of the lungs.
The diaphragm contracts during the inhalation phase of respiration. When it contracts, it moves downward, increasing the volume of the thoracic cavity and causing air to rush into the lungs.
When the diaphragm expands and arches upward, it creates more space in the chest cavity, allowing air to rush in. This is called the inhalation phase of breathing, so you would be inhaling during this process.
The final stage of dying is typically known as the "active phase of dying" or the "transition phase." During this stage, a person may experience decreased consciousness, changes in breathing patterns, and a decrease in blood pressure. It is important to provide comfort and support during this stage.
Inhalation is an active process and exhalation is a passive process

Pressure within the thorax decreases and air is drawn into the lungs
Inhalation means breathing in, and exhalation is breathing out.
Breathing out in crocodiles is a passive process. As the muscles used for inhalation relax, the chest cavity naturally decreases in size causing air to be expelled from the lungs. Crocodiles do not have a diaphragm like mammals to actively control their breathing.
The opposite to breathing in
inhalation
Breathing
Inhalation means breathing in, and exhalation is breathing out.
Inhalation therapists help the patient learn to use respirators and other breathing aids to restore or support breathing.
The medical term you are looking for is "respiration," which refers to the process of breathing involving both inhalation and exhalation movements of the lungs.
The diaphragm is the primary muscle responsible for the inspiratory phase of breathing in the thorax. It contracts and moves downward, increasing the volume of the thoracic cavity and allowing air to enter the lungs. This action helps in the intake of oxygen during inhalation.
